Deep research · Exaupdated 29 days ago
Based on the available publicly reported information up to May 2026, Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India since 2014, has not been convicted of any scandals, corruption allegations, fraud, bribery, or other criminal charges. While his tenure has been marked by significant controversies, investigations, and legal proceedings, none have resulted in formal charges or convictions against him. Modi's early political career was scrutinized for his role during the 2002 Gujarat riots, with investigations by a Supreme Court-appointed Special Investigation Team (SIT) concluding in 2012 that there was no evidence to prosecute him (Wikipedia). The Supreme Court of India also dismissed petitions seeking further investigation or prosecution, affirming that no evidence supported allegations of his involvement (Wikipedia). In recent years, Modi has faced allegations related to misuse of government resources, electoral conduct, and policy decisions, such as the 2016 demonetization and the 2026 NEET-UG paper leak case. However, there are no reports of charges, indictments, or convictions against him in these matters. For instance, the 2026 NEET-UG paper leak led to arrests of individuals involved, but Modi himself was not implicated (scroll.in). Similarly, allegations of electoral misconduct related to televised addresses in 2026 are under judicial review, but no charges have been filed against Modi (lawbeat.in). In summary, despite various investigations and controversies, Narendra Modi has not faced any publicly reported criminal charges, scandals, or convictions as of May 2026.
